Startup Marketing Strategy

Jump Start Your Idea and Develop A Plan to Make Your Business Succeed with A Startup Marketing Strategy

If you don’t have a plan for success then you have a great idea…but that’s about it.

Shawn Moore, President, CEO Think Profits

If you expect business success, you write a business plan, because without it, no one will take you seriously – including your bank. How can you expect to have online success without a written strategy or plan? How will you raise capital without it?

The problem with most start-ups, and why my competition won’t work with you, is the simple fact that you are just that – a start up. Trust me, I know what’s it like to be parked in the start up pile. It’s hard…no one wants to work with us except maybe the BDB and they charge massive interest rates.

What do start-ups do all the time that frustrates agencies, financiers, banks…the real world? We change our minds, we change our direction, we change our products and services and of course we change our budgets.

Why is this the case? In my experience, having created and run numerous start-ups, not to mention consulted with thousands of start-ups over the last two decades, is that start-ups don’t have a plan!

Start-ups are also building a concept into an idea that could work…or not. You are refining revenue models, target markets, geo targets areas and designing and building new products and services etc. What start-up’s are NOT doing is writing a comprehensive digital marketing strategy. (That’s why start-up’s hire my team and I.)

What many businesses don’t realize is that it takes a team of skilled people to make this happen properly. Each desk and skill are specialized. The same way they say it takes a village to raise a child, the same is true in that you need a dedicated team of experts to bring a digital strategy to life.

Alternatively, some businesses use a 1 or 2 man subcontractor, I like to refer to this person as “Basement Bob”. Basement Bob typically promises them the moon and under delivers always…but he is cheap and keeps the cost low…right?

Owners fail to realize that one-man or one-woman web designers and small subcontractors are playing with much more than a few lines of code on their website.

In fact, they are ultimately playing with your companies’ reputation and ultimately your success or lack thereof.

Sad fact – most web designers and Basement Bobs can fit their Internet marketing and business experience into a thimble!

Sure their sites may look good, sure they may throw around techno jumbo words like HTML, WordPress, and Rails, but are their clients’ sites generating profits for them?

“No” is what I hear day-in-and-day-out from individuals who decided to trust their companies digital marketing strategy to a web designer or “Basement Bob” because they were the cheapest on the block or were a friend of a friend!

Basement Bob knows little about business, let alone your business… and even less about the sophisticated digital marketing strategies that we implement and deploy for our clients. I think you may be surprised if you ask them what their knowledge is about marketing automation, lead management, and conversion as well as analytics. If you get “huh” from them I think my point is made.

Look, the bottom line is quite simple, it’s your business – so take control of it by dealing with a company who has built more than 1,700 websites internationally over the past 20 years.

Gourmet Depot Canada Inc

During my Website Audit with Keith, I learned: The basic criteria used by search engines to determine ranking of websites. The steps that one must take to ensure that your website appears on Page 1 of Google and the amount of control you can exercise in ensuring this happens. Content is king, the extent to which our current website does not support our stated goals. The importance of a consistent keyword strategy that is incorporated into every page and aspect of our site. The need to change our home page to better capture to attention of visitors immediately – an overview of what we do and who we are in one glance. Stronger external rather than internal focus. The options available to increase sales and measure return moving forward such as pay per click, video, social networking options etc. While we had entertained adding a retail component to our site, we have never considered these other options as relevant to our business strategy.

I appreciated Keith’s straight forward, succinct approach. He gave us a lot of information in a way that we all understood regardless of our level of technical expertise. I feel he did an excellent job of zeroing in on our stated objectives in terms of the audit and supplying specific solution-based answers to our challenges. In short he exceeded my expectations in every way. He successfully ignited the imagination of everyone in the session. E.g, one of our employees is off today and she has already called me before opening hours to say she has already made some changes to our current site and plans to work over the weekend trying to find a way to implement other simple interim amendments in keeping with Keith’s input. While we appreciate that our site needs more work than we can do without professional support, I am impressed that one of my staff was so motivated by the session as to take the initiative to make immediate improvements within her abilities and on her own time.

I honestly cannot think of any recommendations to make this session more valuable. I would normally say that it could have been better if done in-person. However, I think we were all more focused on the task through the web presentation. With the personalities of my team an in-person presentation would easily turned into a social gathering.

Gourmet Depot Canada Inc.

During my Website Audit with Keith, I learned: the importance of refined “keyword” strategies.Not only its importance on Page one but strategically input throughout the entire website.To quote Keith: “To keep the scent (wording) strong thought out the entire conversion process”.

The importance of our main page (stronger externally as opposed to internally focused) – how we only have 3 seconds to grab their attention. As well currently, how the descriptions used under our Products’ category does nothing to sell them – not only as wholesale products but also for the delicacies they are.

There is nothing I can think of to make this experience more valuable. Flow and break-down of presentation was terrific – high value content. Keith’s approach worked well with our team of “non-techies” — we all understand what it is we need to do moving forward and secure the visits from the customer base we want and need to move forward. I highly recommend a website Audit to other businesses!

EE Learning Company Inc.

During my Website Audit with Keith, the three most beneficial things I learned were: suggestions for site navigation, suggestions to improve the conversion process and suggestions for focusing on the theme aspect of USP. The suggestions that you gave were very valuable. Many of the points you made were valid.

I would sincerely recommend a website audit to other businesses. For myself, I found this more valuable than the mentoring program I took part in.

I would sincerely recommend a Website Audit to other businesses. I learned the search engine optimization process and how it works. Also, having multiple language pages will boost up/help the rankings. Thank you Keith and Larry!

Larry was patient and did not rush through the material. If something needed repeating he did so without any hesitation. Kept asking if we understood (individually) what was being said. Some people just rocket through and don’t bother to ask the audience/students whether they understand or not.

Hermann Fruhm

During the recent audit of our website, we learned that there was a lot of housekeeping to be done and that SEO strategy is very important. We realized that there is a lot of work to be done to our website, and feel that we received a pretty good analysis.

The web site audit provided us with an independent third party review of how we can improve our web site in order to accomplish our SEO and SEM objectives. A number of items came to light that we should be utilizing and implementing such as: having a domain name strategy, use of banana boxes, adding a privacy policy, adding a security certificate, developing landing pages, improving our testimonials area and many more.Thanks

I am pleased to recommend Think Profits to any company that wants to take a serious approach to leveraging all of what the Internet can do for their business.

QSD Inc.

We were given an honest outside opinion on our website. It made us realize how non-user friendly our site is, along with security and disclosure statements we are missing. We were shown how many keywords we are missing out on. We were shown how a quality web site with proper keywords and content would affect our presence on the internet, which will result in an immediate increase in contacts and revenues. I don’t think that in one session any more information should be put forward as that was enough to get the wheels turning. We look forward to reviewing an outline and estimated cost to take us to the next level.
